Jeremiah 49:19 in Context — Jeremiah 49
17 Édom sera un objet de désolation; Tous ceux qui passeront près de lui Seront dans l’étonnement et siffleront sur toutes ses plaies.
18 Comme Sodome et Gomorrhe et les villes voisines, qui furent détruites, Dit l’Éternel, Il ne sera plus habité, Il ne sera le séjour d’aucun homme…
19 Voici, tel qu’un lion, il monte des rives orgueilleuses du Jourdain Contre la demeure forte; Soudain j’en ferai fuir Édom, Et j’établirai sur elle celui que j’ai choisi. Car qui est semblable à moi? qui me donnera des ordres? Et quel est le chef qui me résistera?
20 C’est pourquoi écoutez la résolution que l’Éternel a prise contre Édom, Et les desseins qu’il a conçus contre les habitants de Théman! Certainement on les traînera comme de faibles brebis, Certainement on ravagera leur demeure.
21 Au bruit de leur chute, la terre tremble; Leur cri se fait entendre jusqu’à la mer Rouge…
